A road less travelled

You would hope that this afternoon's route is one "less travelled". We met Paul at 1100 Melville St, and had coffee at one of the (good) local places. Strangely enough there was a Kiwi behind the counter. Then we walked to Granville Market to look around, going via the ferry and meeting Reuben. After a bit of looking at the market (the fresh bread, cheeses and meat looked very appealing), we decided it was time for lunch and so Paul walked us for miles to his favourite place - which also has good coffee (he found Elysian on CoffeeGeek.com). They had wireless internet access, so we caught up on bits and pieces.

This afternoon we decided to go to Stanley Park, so walked back across Burrard Bridge, then along the waterfront to the park. Around the Lost Lagoon, and over to the North-eastern side of the park. Then back around near the Vancouver Yacht Club, and back up Cambie Street. We have stopped at a Starbucks close to the hotel to recover. My feet are aching - not used to so much walking. When you think that most of my days are spent tied to a desk. For some reason, Sonia is still ok, albeit her shoes are looking a bit tatty and the soles are splitting off.

Off for dinner tonight with Roz, Reuben, and Paul. For those of you who know him, Paul has lost weight - a lot!
